About Me

Just a 21 year old university student studying business, but loves anything related to makeup and fashion ♥ I am a budget-watcher, so the majority of my products are from drugstores. However, once in awhile I let myself splurge :) I will be posting my experiences with various beauty and makeup products and provide honest reviews and swatches. I also love finding new and interesting things so dont be surprised if i include posts that have nothing to do with makeup! I really hope that this will be of help to you guys :) Enjoy reading ♥

Since im packing.. i thought i might as well show you what i'm bringing along with me makeup wise :) First off, i am super lovinggg my new makeup bag that i purchased from H&M. I love it so much that i even got another one in grey and pink! The outside of the bag is plastic so it is waterproof and it can hold a tonnnn of stuff! (i think this was around $5 CAD?)

note - my all time favourite products are in purple!

outside of the bag

inside the bag - one side has two pockets

inside the bag - other side has one big pocket

zipper goes all the way down on both sides, plus the bag expands allowing it to carry alot!

not even halfway full!

Anyways, onto my makeup products! first off is face products. Im bringing two foundations because i normally like to switch on and off. The missha one has very high spf protection while the revlon has better coverage.

Stila smdugepot in Bronze - i love this! once its on it doesnt budge!!

Maybelline gel liner in black - Waterproof

Covergirl Lash Blast Volume Waterproof

Avon glimmerstick in blackest black

Sephora flashy liner waterproof in flashy blue

Stila kajal eye liner in tigers eye

Candy shop shining auto pencil in pink

Wet n Wild coloricon palette in Vanity

ELF eyebrow kit in dark

Sedona Lace 88 Shimmer palette

all the eyeshadows i'll ever need.. not that i'll be wearing much on the cruise, but if i am, it'd be those bright coral colors for sureee! I also decided to bring along my wnw palette in vanity because it is great for creating a gorgeous gold/bronze look! (i'll be reviewing all my wnw palettes when i come back along with tutorials on how to create looks using them)

and some swatches of eyeliners

out of these, Sephora's and Avons stay and last all day while the other two can sometimes smudge off

And now onto Lip Products and Blushes!

I decided to stick with nudes and pinks because i didnt want to look overdone or anything. I am also bringing along my favourite shimmery nude (but not deathly nude) lipgloss elf's goddess (GORGEOUS), plus a bright pink and a red just in case ;) Blushes wise, im bringing my all time fav - mac hang loose for a light pretty pink, and also bringing stereo rose because corals sound perfect for a cruise :)

Maybelline Moisture Extreme in Nude Blush

Close ups of lippies - ive swatched all of these before, so if you're looking for them, just search it up in the search box in the right sidebar!

lastly, i know these arent really makeup related, but these products are my must haves! they are great products all year round, but especially good during the summer days..

Herablife Herbal Aloe, Everyday Soothing Gel

feels sooo good on the skin, great for making your skin super soft & hyrdrated and also great for sunburns! Plus, aloe helps get rid of scars! i have been using this product for i dont know how many years, but its a must have skincare product for me. i dont know why i've never reviewed it yet, but remind me to do so when i come back!

The Body Shop Vitamin C Energising Face Spritz

The Body Shop Vitamin E Face Mist

these two face sprays make great refreshers during hot summer days. they instantly wake you up and leave your makeup feeling refreshed. Plus, they also smell super goood!!

And thats it! Im probably not going to be wearing too much makeup on the cruise but i wanted to bring enough just in case. (especially since i heard there were TWO formal nights where we get to dress up! yayyy!) For some reason, i always tend to overpack because im the type of girl who always likes to have choices. I change my mind often so i never know what i'm really going to wear until morning of.. lol Apart from the formal nights, i think most days i'll go with my normal face routine plus waterproof eyeliner & mascara plus either a lipstick or a lipgloss :)

Anyways, I'll be leaving for the airport in about 6 hours, so goodbye everyone for a week or so! I'll be back soon with a giveaway so dont forget to bookmark Pinkbox Makeup and come back to enter!! Take Care!Blogger Templates
